Abstract
Overlays for use with touch sensitive display devices are provided, which are configured to simulate visually and/or touch discernible areas with the look and feel of actual buttons or activators. The overlay may be provided over an otherwise smooth surface of a display device to augment its look and/or feel, to enhance its user operability as a touch sensitive display device. The overlay includes one, a plurality, or a pattern of visually and/or touch discernible area(s), and is overlaid on the display device such that the discernible areas are registered with active regions (touch sensitive regions) of the display device. Thus, a user can readily discern the active regions of the display device based on the visually or touch discernible areas overlaid thereon. When an area is touched, an active region corresponding to the area is activated, and an activation signal is generated to trigger execution of a corresponding routine.
